In a tranquil corner of Princeton, this expansive French Country-inspired estate home sits on
nearly five acres of manicured lawns, with glorious trees and plantings, bluestone walkways,
terraces, and a reflection pond with fountains on the completely fenced-in grounds. A huge
pavilion with lighting and ceiling fans will be the favorite place to dine after a day spent by the
colossal free-form swimming pool. This serene poolside retreat includes a sauna and a pool
house with a full bath, a changing room, a kitchenette, and a loft. Palatial, yet homey, the
interior’s traditional details glimpse its storied past. Princeton’s prominent Pettit family once lived
here, and no expense was spared in its construction. From room to room, rich wood paneling,
barrel-vaulted archways, window seats, elaborate moldings and woodwork, and fireplaces
adorned with marble hearths echo the Gilded Age when homes were built for entertaining on the
grandest scale. The kitchen was modernized along with a fireside breakfast room and features
top-of-the-line gourmet appliances, multiple dishwashers and sinks, wine storage, and exquisite
maple and granite countertops. Two rear staircases add to the home’s functionality, with one in
the mudroom that leads to a bedroom wing with a bathroom, ideal for live-in help. The grand
front staircase climbs to the other four bedrooms and a home office. The primary suite connects
to a charming room that would function beautifully as a nursery or a second home office, and
there are two bathrooms, one for each homeowner. The other bedrooms are either en suite or
utilize a hall bath. Views of nature's artistry take center stage, with each bedroom window
providing another slice of the spectacular landscaping. Additional features include a three-car
heated garage with an area for a gym, and the roof was recently replaced. There’s plenty of
space on the rolling green lawns for tennis, pickleball, or a sports court if that is on your wishlist
